when removing hot containers.

3. To protect against a risk of electrical shock do not immerse cord,

plug, or base in water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or

near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use. Unplug before putting on or

taking off parts and allow to cool before cleaning.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after

the appliance malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged in any

manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for information

on examination, repair, or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the

appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot

surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a

heated oven.

11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance

containing hot food, water, or other hot liquids.

12. To disconnect, make sure the cook switch is pushed up to the “up”

position; then remove plug from wall outlet.

13. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

14. Lift and open cover carefully to avoid scalding, and allow water to

drip into the cooker.

15. Caution: Risk of electric shock. Cook only in removable container.

16. Do not place the unit directly under cabinets when operating as

this product produces large amounts of steam. Avoid reaching

over the product when operating.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or

injury to persons, including the following:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one

wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only

one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of

the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.

If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have

an electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce

the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.

If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be

used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or

greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange

the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or table-

top where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Wash cooking pot and lid following the “Cleaning” instructions in this Use & Care Guide. Dry

thoroughly.

2. Do not throw away the plastic rice-measurer that came with your unit. This is an important

tool in using your rice cooker successfully and its size is standard in the rice industry. One

rice-measurer cup does not equal one standard U.S. cup (plastic rice-measurer is 6 oz/180 ml

or approximately ¾ U.S. cup). When directed to use “1 cup” for either rice or water, this

means use one full, level rice-measurer cup

. Most rice package directions are listed in terms

of rice-measurer cups

3. The most important detail when cooking rice is the ratio of rice to water. A good general ratio

is two parts water to one part rice (please see illustration above). If for some reason you lose

or misplace the plastic rice-measurer, measure BOTH rice and water using a standard U.S.

cup–your rice will turn out just as well. To prevent overflow and/or overheating, do not exceed

the 10-cup line when both rice and water are added to cooking pot.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM

Cooker doesn’t turn on.

Rice is not cooked.

Rice is mushy.

PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Cooker is not plugged in. Make sure rice cooker is plugged into a properly operating electrical outlet.

Not enough water/cooking liquid. Follow package directions or see Rice Cooking Chart for more information.

Carefully place cooking pot straight down in base. Make sure cooking pot is securely seated by rotating the pot left and

right. NOTE: If cooking pot is bent or warped, it will not seat properly in base and, therefore, will not conduct heat cor-

rectly. To replace cooking pot, call the toll-free Customer Assistance number listed on the cover of this guide

Too much liquid added to cooking pot. Reduce liquid.

Rice Cooker Cooking Time (approximate). Rice cooker will

switch to WARM after cooking time, indicating rice is cooked.

Serving Size = 3/4 cup (180 g)

• Stir prepackaged, boxed rice mixes at least once during cooking;

otherwise, spices may stick to the bottom of the cooking pot. For

best results, unplug unit when finished cooking this type of rice.

Do not “keep warm.”

• Rinsing rice will sometimes increase bubbling during cooking.

When cooking a half pot or less of rice, minimize bubbling/

overflow by reducing water by about one-third.

• Allowing rice to “rest” for approximately 5–10 minutes after cooking

will yield better-textured rice.

• Give rice a flavor boost by substituting an equal amount chicken/

beef/vegetable broth for water.
